MYOSOTIS (FORGET-ME-NOT), 
MYOSOTIS 
(from mus, a mouse, and otis, an ear; 
resemblance of the leaves.) Universally 
known and loved for its beautiful little 
blue, gem-like flowers with golden eye, 
under the name of Forget-me-not. It 
is a perennial plant, but does not thrive 
wellin hot weather. Sown in autumn? 
it will bloom profusely in spring, covering — 
itself. with flowers of the most lovely 
cerulean-blue, most dainty for grouping. 
Being an aquatic, it needs constant 
watering, and, if grown in a pot, the 
_ latter should stand in a pan of water. 
NEMOPHILA 
is one of the daintiest of our little 
summer annuals, It makes charming 
little groups, and ribbons, centres, or 
circles, They are named from the Latin, 
nemos a grove, and phileo, love, love- 
grove, from their 
modesty, and introduced from California. 
‘The tips of the petals are coloured, some 
native habits o¢ 
_ speckled andthe main colors are white 
with purple specks, and pale blue. They 
_ will grow in almost any soilo situation.

according to the caprice of fashion. 
Nevertheless it always finds a place 
among the spring gaities. This magnifi- 
cent family of plants includes some of 
the most lovely colors and shades to be 
found in the floral world. The Single 
Shirley, Iceland, and Tulip Poppies are 
charming, and the double varieties are 
gorgeous in their colouring, They are 
easily cultiveted. All they want is good 
soil and plenty of room. They should be 
planted in clumps where the plants are 
intended to remain; as they do not bear 
transplarting easily. The varieties of 
peppy, both as regards size and color, are 
very numerous, bearing the names of 
Pxony, Ranunculus, and Car ation- 
flowered. 
ANTIRRHINUMS 
(Snout-like or Snapdragon) are perennial, 
but best treated as annuals, as the young 
plants give greater satisfaction. Some of
